Leaves and birds in the Appalachian Mountains. From now through the first week of November (2018) autumn leaves are peaking along the ridges and valleys of the Appalachians. This time of year is doubly good if you’re also a birder! Here is a list of my favorite mountain state parks to visit during the first brisk days of fall (and into the winter). North Bend State Park, West Virginia.

Author: Carson Conant The use of sales and marketing technologies has become a critical piece of the puzzle for organizations looking to increase their sales productivity. Yet, chances are most organizations are missing out on a substantial opportunity to boost their sales revenue. In today’s modern marketplace, enterprises must be able to confidently quantify and convey which content and messaging should be provided to sales reps in order to drive revenue and engage buyers.

The final days of October are naturally spooky, at least in the north. It gets darker earlier day by day. The Maples and Oaks are in a rush to drop their remaining leaves and “shut down” for several months. Increasingly cold winds play with the crumpled dead foliage and if we stop and listen carefully, the lurking, unfriendly breeze whispers, warns, “winter…” It’s a valid warning, much colder and darker days are coming and Halloween sits on the threshold of th

Nothing much tops birding in autumn. The days are crisp and cool. There are more birds in autumn than at any other time of year. Sparrows predominate but there are a host of other species to find and identify. If it’s a good finch year like this year is there is the ever present knowledge that something awesome, like a crossbill or a grosbeak, might cross your field of view.

A lot of thrill seekers immerse themselves in mock terror the weekend before Halloween. If you want to hear something really scary, consider this: we only have two more months of 2018! Between work and rain, I saw nothing but mundane birds this weekend, and not even in good light. Mourning Dove was about as good as it got, so make of that what you will.

Welcome to the first weekend of November. If you identify as a birdwatcher, birder, or general nature buff, you’ve earned another weekend to get out there and chase birds during a beautiful time of year. If you don’t consider yourself a birder or nature lover, my first question is simply, “When are you going to start?” Next, I have to ask, “Why are you reading this blog?

Author: Ryan Gould In the context of content marketing, a product-agnostic approach is one that focuses on your expertise and knowledge around a product, technology or service rather than your brand. This kind of content positions you as a thought leader in a given field or industry, does not contain a sales pitch, and should never mention your company or brand except as the source of the content. 4 Examples of Product-Agnostic Content.

Author: BRAD WILSTED Companies pour enormous resources into growth. From sales force training and compensation to investments in sales processes and technology, organizations relentlessly seek to pull the right levers that will drive revenue growth and improve sales effectiveness. These efforts frequently end up with disappointing results, however, because most companies neglect the most powerful lever in their arsenal: their frontline, field-level sales managers.

Author: JIM NINIVAGGI, CHIEF READINESS OFFICER, BRAINSHARK “What’s your onboarding program for new sales managers?”. More often than not, this question gets met with blank stares. That’s a pity. While most companies would agree that sales onboarding is a strategic priority, the focus of their processes is often only?—? and myopically?—?on the field force.

Author: TIM HOULIHAN Maybe we’ve met. Was it was at a trade show or a conference? You said you’ve built a lot of sales incentive programs as a manager, and, not to toot your own horn, but they have worked pretty darn well. So, why read this article? With 20-plus years and more than 1,500 sales incentive programs under my belt, I’ve got some experience to share.

Author: Paul Nolan Before I began researching this issue’s cover story, I had no idea the lack of sales management training was as dire a problem as it is. We thought there was a gap in training for B2B sales managers, but quickly discovered that “gap” is actually a canyon (hence the cover image). In a 2017 report titled “Sales Managers: Overwhelmed and Underdeveloped,” CSO Insights reports almost 40 percent of organizations spend $500 or less annually on sales manager training.

Author: Paul Nolan A new year means a new calendar, and new trends to incorporate into your go-to-market strategy. Forecasting, it is said, is the art of saying what will happen, and then explaining why it didn’t. It may be a fool’s errand to predict what B2B marketing strategies will emerge in 2019, but trendwatching is an important skill for business leaders across all industries.

Now that we have “settled” in Tucson, Arizona, or at least this is where the 5th Wheel is for the time being, it has been nice to be able to spread out a bit. When you live on the road, you don’t get stuff out much, since you will need to put it away by morning so you can be on the road again. I have my bird books, field guides and reference material out where they can be gotten to in a moment’s notice.

Author: Xavier Musy CRM platforms are already firmly ensconced within the sales technology and strategies of most small and midsized businesses. Sales teams have been using their CRMs for basic, day-to-day-functions -- such as managing customer information and tracking purchase history -- for decades. In that time, CRMs have faithfully served as a place to store data, log notes, and manage contacts.

In recent weeks Little Curlews Numenius minutus have returned to Broome from their migration to the northern hemisphere. We used to encounter them regularly on the sports’ fields years ago, but now we encounter them out of town more often than in town. Little Curlews stand out very well when they are on lush green lawns as with the encounter with one at a park only metres from home in 2012 , but when they are in the natural bush they soon disappear into the landscape and could easily be o
